Subject: Site Plan 78-2022 GARVEY KIA
La u ra,
Per our phone conversation this afternoon;
I am formally requesting a 1.5 year extension of Site Plan 78-2022 that was granted to us on
December 13, 2022.
Primarily due to the excessive costs that we are experiencing with the Bids for the job and
Kia's new requirements.
We are aggressively meeting weekly with our preferred local builder/Architect and been in
contact with Kia Motor
America in an attempt to gaining some concessions from them on our project.
Warmest Regards,
Sean

Applicant requests a discussion for development of vacant property located on Bay Road. The parcel contains

Staff Comments
• Location -The project is located just north of 383 Bay Road on a 3.52 ac parcel in the Commercial Intensive
zone.
• Arrangement- The site is vacant at this time and contains wetlands to the rear of the property
• Site Design- The applicant has been trying to market the site for sale for a long time.
• Building — There are no buildings at this time. Any proposed buildings would require site plan review and
most likely would require a variance for setbacks to wetlands and other dimensional requirements.
• Site conditions -Properties on either side are developed.
• Traffic- The site has frontage on Bay road and businesses on either side have parking areas almost to the
property line.
• Site details -The applicant would like to sell the property so it may be developed for an allowed use listed in
the Cl zone ie bank, food service, gallery etc.
• Utility details -The site is in the sewer and water district and would need to coordinate for municipal
connections
